I don't know what is going on here and I'm not sure I believe it, but a thread has appeared elsewhere saying that O2 Webmail will be closing at the end of the year according to an O2 Web Chat advisor.
Maybe Chiara could check this out as people using this service may need to make other arrangements.

Just sent a test email, went out ok.
You're using port 25, I assume?

Have you been getting a few "mail cannot be delivered" messages that you didn't send?
I use port 25.

Yes, with ssl disabled.

No - I had some a while back, but on a different email address (I assumed someone was spoofing the address).

Same here.
I've noticed, however, that I can set up a different smtp server on port 25 (which I'm sure was blocked before). As the O2 address is about to die anyway, I'll switch to the other server straight away instead.

Probably for the best since non-ssl email connections aren't a good idea anyway.

My mistake, I spoke too soon - the alternative smtp server is not working
I guess I need to call O2 to find out what's going on. Thanks for the help, guys.

How will this affect those isp's that you block port 25 and users have to send via o2 smtp?
Or will the removal of the o2 smtp server allow all isp's outgoing email servers to be used?
We still see threads that this occours on

Hi Adam,
Let me try and get some info on that for you.
Cheers, Toby
Any update on this? I'm trying to set up an alternative outgoing smtp server on my phone, connected to the O2 3G network, but it looks like ports 25, 587 and 465 (for an SSL connection) are all blocked. What happens when we can no longer access the O2 smtp server?
